You are correct it’s an confusing article Quantamagazine have written, why do they start highlighting “Tiny Pointers” https://arxiv.org/pdf/2111.12800 when “Optimal Bounds for Open Addressing Without Reordering” https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.02305 is the main paper, and it disproves part of Tiny Pointers.
Here’s a link to the paper “Tiny Pointers” https://arxiv.org/pdf/2111.12800 those editors at Quantamagazine writes their summary in a strange fashion, for instance using x in stead of n which is normally used in computer science when talking about big O notation.

Okay the dictionary is wrong, do you have a better dictionary?
2pt… Had an important point: piracy = copyright infringement.
Blocking ads is a ToS violation, not piracy.
I understand your reasoning for calling ad-blocking for piracy, but I’m not sure I agree, or else we have to split “piracy” into degrees.
1900 employees, that’s something like 10 big games that won’t be released, or we can look forward to more outages and bugs in the new releases, and slower fixing of those bugs.
Thanks Microsoft for your contribution to enshittification 🏅💩
Sounds about right, I had a positive experience when I told my local LLM to refactor a function and add a single argument.
I would not dare letting it loose on a whole source file, because it changes random things giving you more code to review.
In my view current LLM’s do a acceptable job with:
